How Shongwe Lodges Are Changing Tourism in Africa

Jamie Henson, founder and director of the Shongwe brand, talks with Michaela Guzy of Insider Travel Report in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, about the growth of his boutique lodges—Shongwe Lookout, Shongwe Oasis and the soon-to-open Shongwe Simbisa. Henson shares how the brand supports the local community through preschool education, a program employing single mothers to collect and repurpose waste, and a refillable water bottle initiative that has cut plastic use by 20,000 bottles a year.
